The Ten Best Derby Day Events - Now With 40 Percent More Cinco de Mayo

Coloradans have officially taken to the Kentucky Derby like a fish to water; events are rapidly selling out all over town. And while we're still not sure why people are so excited to don sundresses, giant hats and seersucker suits in order to go drinking (normally we can't even give up our fleeces and cargo shorts for weddings and funerals), we can't be too mad at anything that involves good food and drink.

By Alaina Brandenburger Many people mistakenly assume that Cinco de Mayo is celebrated as Mexico's Independence Day but this is not the case. The day commemorates the country's victory over the French Empire during the Battle of Puebla in 1862. This minor Mexican holiday has evolved within the United States and has become a celebration of Mexican heritage and culture.
